Shen Xingwan stretched out his hand to pull Lin Zhiyu up and glanced at the fifth young master with disgust.
"Old madam, if you have time to worry about me, you'd better take care of your grandson. He's like a mad dog. What big things can he accomplish?"
Lin Zhiyu's heart was completely cold, "If you go into my yard again, don't blame me for being rude."
The fifth young master looked straight at the old lady, "Grandma, you promised me to be my concubine."
Lin Zhiyu bit her lip, wishing she could rush up and slap her.
The old lady looked at Lin Zhiyu with extremely complicated eyes. She sighed and said slowly, "You are an orphan, so why not just follow Xiao Wu? When he gets married, he will never treat you badly."
The old lady believed that she was extremely benevolent and was willing to give Lin Zhiyu a place to stay after causing such a thing.
Lin Zhiyu's eyes were as cold as ice, "I've been suffering from eating chaff and swallowing vegetables all my life, and I don't want to be a concubine. My parents didn't bring me into this world to let me abuse myself like this."
What happened to the Zhou family made her sick to her core.
The old lady's face was stern and she didn't say a word. She said that if she was forced to stay with her with resentment, something would happen sooner or later.
The fifth young master asked unwillingly, "Why don't you agree?"
"Because you are a rotten person and I feel sick when I see you." Lin Zhiyu said coldly.
The fifth young master didn't know which nerve was struck by this sentence, and he laughed crazily, "Oh, no one is bad, but they are all monsters in human skin..."
Seeing his crazy behavior, Shen Xingwan felt that he must have been stimulated in some way.
Lin Zhiyu didn't want to get into too much trouble with him, "Please take care of the fifth young master, madam, otherwise don't blame me for not having an eye for swords."
She has already thought about it. From now on, she will always have a knife with her at all times, and she will risk her life.
"let's go…"
As soon as the two people walked out of the room, they heard the sound of things breaking.
The weather was gloomy and it looked like it was going to snow. Lin Zhiyu took a breath of air-conditioning and said, "It's really uncomfortable..."
Shen Xingwan held her hand and said, "With this kind of smallpox, you have to eat a pot of mutton and boil a pot of wine."
Lin Zhiyu didn't have a negative character either. He was quickly diverted by her and his mood improved.
"Go to my place for dinner." Shen Xingwan turned to Bai Ling and told Bai Ling, "Go and make arrangements."
When the two of them walked back, a charcoal fire had been lit in the room, the wine had been warmed, and they were just waiting for the mutton pot to be delivered.
Lin Zhiyu sat on a chair and planned with Iris, first rent a house, have a corner, and then move out as soon as possible before the year.
Neither of them were very familiar with these things. Bai Ling had grown up here, and he knew a lot about these things.
She took the initiative to speak to Iris, "I can introduce Yapo to my sister. I still have to choose the house I live in carefully."
Especially for two only women, they have to choose something that is reasonably priced and complete.
Iris immediately grabbed her hand and said, "Thank you, sister."
Feiyan and Shen Xingwan asked her to go down and have a rest. Eleven was hiding outside in the dark so as not to eavesdrop on her.
"Are you really leaving?" Shen Xingwan asked.
Lin Zhiyu took a sip of hot tea and said, "This is not my home after all, and I can't stay here any longer."
The fifth young master forced his way into her yard in broad daylight, which completely woke her up. She was nothing here. She did not want her fate to be in the hands of others.
"The Zhou family is indeed in chaos. It's good to leave." Shen Xingwan agreed with her decision. There is no way to guard against thieves. She is weak against the fifth young master.
While the two were talking, a pot of fresh mutton stewed in mutton soup was brought up, along with several kinds of fresh vegetables.
Shen Xingwan took matters into his own hands, "No matter what, it's still fun to eat."
The two of them soon broke into a sweat, their bodies felt warm, and the depression in their hearts also dissipated a bit.
They feel comfortable here, because there is an undercurrent in Zhou Mansion because of what happened today.
The second lady went to see the grounded eldest lady and told her what her good son had done.
The eldest lady's eyes turned red due to stimulation, "Did you design Xiao Wu? He would not do such a thing."
A strange smile appeared on the second lady's face, "Why not? Aren't you the mother-in-law in front of me? The feeling of having an affair with my brother-in-law is so good that you will never forget it?"
"Haha, I think your precious son is your true successor. The mother-in-law and the brother-in-law are unclear. The son covets his cousin. He is indeed a mother and son."
"Bitch, shut up!" The eldest lady rushed forward and wanted to beat her.
The second lady was not someone to be trifled with. She took a step back and was immediately blocked by her mother-in-law. The servants on both sides were about to get angry.
"Don't worry, I will definitely tell what happened today to the ears of Miss Li, who is discussing marriage with him."
"How dare you!" The eldest lady was very angry. This marriage was not easy for her to get, and the other party's family background was not low. "If you dare to do this, I will never let you go."
The second lady chuckled lightly, "You have disgusted me for so many years, and now all this is your retribution."
The second lady let out a bad breath and left. Zhou Man also prepared a pot and waited for her to go back to eat.
Zhou Man hesitated, "Would this be bad for Sister Lin's reputation?"
She had no ill feelings toward Lin Zhiyu and felt sorry for her plight.
The second lady said warmly, "She is ambitious. Mother has already thought about leaving the Zhou family. I will give her more money when the time comes. I hope she can live well when she leaves."
As for her reputation, she was the one who felt sorry for her this time. She had to ruin the marriage.
As for the fifth young master, the eldest master, who came home late, called him directly to the study and made him kneel down.
Lin Zhiyu's mood has calmed down, and she is talking about her plan, "I plan to go out and live until spring, and then leave when the spring flowers bloom."
She was worried about staying here all the time. The fifth young master's character was too extreme and she was afraid that he would go crazy again. Besides, she didn't like it here at all.
Shen Xingwan thought, if nothing else happened, she should have left Xiling by then.
She said, "I will go out to see you when I have time."
The overall situation on her side is uncertain, and she cannot make any promises.
"Okay." Lin Zhiyu agreed.
After they finished eating, Bai Ling came in with someone to clean up, "It's snowing outside."
The two of them immediately walked out of the door and watched the snowflakes falling bit by bit under the eaves.
"This must be the first snow of the year..."
The two of them watched quietly. The sky was quiet at this time, and the laughter of the little maids occasionally came from the yard.
Lin Zhiyu couldn't help but play a few songs. Everyone would get drunk even if they were not drunk. Shen Xingwan felt drowsy after listening to it.
She dreamed of walking side by side in the plum forest with a man in the heavy snow.
It was snowing like this, and someone was braving the snow for her.
When Lin Zhiyu saw that she was caught, he stopped playing the piano and looked quietly at the heavy snow outside the window.
There was heavy snow falling outside the house, and there was a close friend inside the house. She suddenly felt that today was not so sad anymore.
